  • Steep Canyon Rangers Performing Live at Mesa Arts Center Friday, November 2, 2017
    Media Contact: Casey Blake 480-644-6620 [email protected] Steep Canyon Rangers Performing Live at Mesa Arts Center Friday, November 2, 2017 Mesa, AZ (October 5, 2017) – GRAMMY® Award-winning Steep Canyon Rangers will perform live at Mesa Arts Center Friday, November 2 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale now and available at the Mesa Arts Center box office, MesaArtsCenter.com or by calling 480-644-6500. Steep Canyon Rangers effortlessly walk the line between festival favorite and sophisticated string orchestra. They’re as danceable as the most progressive, party-oriented string band, and equally comfortable translating their songs for accompaniment by a full symphony. It’s that mix of serious chops and good-natured fun that earned the Steep Canyon Rangers the GRAMMY® Award for Best Bluegrass Album in 2013 (for "Nobody Knows You"), and that drew celebrated comedian/banjoist Steve Martin to them when he needed a backing band. The Rangers are world-class musicians who are just as at home taking the stage at Carnegie Hall as they are knee-deep in a mountain brook, fly rod in hand. It has been more than fifteen years and nine studio albums since the Steep Canyon Rangers formed in Chapel Hill. The band received rave reviews for their last album (the Jerry Douglas- produced "Radio"), with No Depression commenting that it is "one of those albums that’s packed with hits."
